Try changing the default apn type to "default, supl" and the pxt type to "mms" save changes . then go back tick and untick mobile network and retry.

Does your SIM card work in another handset using mobile data?

The issue might not be with your phone

If you're still having an issue and have entered the settings as above... try turning the Desire off then back on again, see if that works. Theres a thread here somewhere about settings on Desire and it mentions it there.

Hi there,

Thank you for the settings!

I'm having problem with My Samsung Galaxy S (FroYo - I9000ZSJPE) I have typed your settings in as well, but still the same.. The mobile internet works well, no problem with that, but when I try to send an MMS it only goes out when both the WiFi and the 3G turned on. As soon as I turn off the WiFi the MMS I want to send stucks in, says "Sending"but nothing happens. I have tied to restart, reset my phone factory settings. No luck. Any idea?

Thanks

Hi,

Sorry about the delayed reply. been on holiday.

Most of the time when you can browse the web, but can't send MMS, its because the APN type isn't set correctly. Have you double checked these settings?

im having the same issue with my Galaxy S

Hi there, Sorry for the late reply, I fixed it, you were right about the APN type. I'll post the right settings (which worked for me) in a few seconds. Thanks!

Hi there,
Please try these settings:

Settings--Wireless and Network -- Mobile networks -- Access Point Names

If you have existing settings please delete them.

Then:

You will need 2 different settings. One for the net and one for the MMS:

Vodafone Net

Name: Vodafone net
APN: www.vodafone.net.nz
Proxy:
Port:
User name:
Password:
Server:
MMSC:
MMS Proxy:
MMS port:
MCC: 530
MNC: 01
Authentication type: none
APN type: INTERNET (not internet+mms, or MMS or dont leave it on default!!)

MMS Settings:

Name: Vodafone MMS
APN: live.vodafone.com
Proxy:
Port:
User name:
Password:
Server:
MMSC: http://pxt.vodafone.net.nz/pxtsend
MMS proxy: 172.30.38.3
MMS port: 8080
MCC: 530
MNC: 01
Authentication type: none
APN type: mms

Please try these and let me know if worked or not.

These settings work for me (vodafone NZ, not 2degrees or telecom)
